How and Why to Play Sudoku with Kids?

 Sudoku is a fun puzzle that lets kids use their logical reasoning and critical thinking skills. I use this game to level up my students brain power, stimulate their mind, improve children’s memory. Most importantly, we have fun! Knowing that they are making an active improvement in their mental and physical health as a result. You can play sudoku in so many different and funny ways. For example, I love to play it for reinforcing my students vocabulary. First, I draw a 4x4 grid on a whiteboard and my students draw it in their notebooks. I try to use notebooks and whiteboard whenever we have time. If you are like me, you have every reason to do that. I believe that student have to practice this type of hand-eye coordination. Then we write any vocabulary that we want to practice.   ...and the thinking process can start! The aim of this game is to write the missing words (draw pictures) in the empty squares. Every word must appear only once in each row, column

Bingo Numbers to 100

Primarily I made this printable for my ESL students, but I also use it with my kiddos at home. Both, my pupils and my four and five year old at home love BINGO. We play Bingo, whenever we have time, with a wide range of topics. It is an easy to play game and it doesn't demand a lot. My students draw a 3x3 or 3x2 grid in their notebooks, write the vocabulary we need to reinforce, and the game can start. It was great as far as we played with 10 to 15 words. The problem appeared with numbers 1 to 100, when we needed a bigger grid and more words. Eventually, I solved my problem by making this printable. It made my day!  I prefer the Call Card more than the Number Cards. Simply because, there is just one Call Card. By contrast,  there are 100 Number Cards. I use a sheet protector to make my Call Card durable. I write with dry-eraser on it, so I can use it more than once. There are 36 unique game cards, enough for my class. They can be printed in color, on card stock
